UPDATE: He is now claiming it was a joke, mocking strict immigration bills. I get it…NOW. The problem is that most people outside of Mississippi will never hear that “I was only joking” part and will continue to make remarks online like “Just call it the Gulf of The Confederacy and let the south secede and take it with them!

Someone should tell Steve Holland this may not be the best political climate in which to introduce satire into legislative proposal.
